100th Post

Wow 100 blog entries! I didn't think I'd make it this far.  I started January 7th 2011 and then took a hiatus in February - July.  What can I say I'm impatient when it comes to blogging.  I want followers instantly. So when I only had 3 come February I said forget it.  I got back into it in July and I can say I'm glad I stuck with it.  I've "met" some wonderful people on here and hope to meet more.  


Because this is my 100th post I feel like I need to do something big & not just some weekend review.  So after googling "What to write on my 100th blog entry" I found that some people do 100 facts about themselves, and I'm a follower of others and think this is a fun idea. Plus it will give you more information about me. I feel like I haven't shared much about myself here...so here we go!
